Prairie Springtime
April in the Osage: The bulls are up and getting ready for the breeding season. They are gaining weight and spend most of their time grazing and singing to the cows, announcing their availability. We turn them out the first week in May in order to have February babies. The cows are also beefing up and should be cycling by May.
Quick quote: In my God is the joy of my soul [Isaiah].
The wonder of life abounds in April. This is my favorite time of year! It is also the favorite for the cattle as they build their strength and heighten their breeding instincts in preparation to participate in God's creative work. It is easy to see God's hand at work.
